Our next concert is December 1. The theme is Jazz for the Journey.
We appreciate donations of refreshments for our post-concert celebration.
Here’s a rough draft of the program.
The concert will be livestreamed – our videographer will send the link soon!
Reminder About Concert Attendance
Orchestra is a co-curricular activity, meaning it is considered an academic class (curricular) that has requirements outside of the school day (co-curricular). Several of our orchestra students are engaged in sports, work, and other extracurricular activities. In the event of a conflict, the orchestra concert takes precedence because it is the outcome of our academic work. However, if an orchestra student can make both game/meet and the concert work, great! If not, the concert is a graded activity for an academic course, so that takes precedence over games or meets.
Good news – the conflicts are pretty minimal as we only perform 6 times during the year, and this usually only affects one game/meet per season. When I was in high school, I got to compete in athletics and music and debate, learning many important values and life skills in all of them. I support our students as they learn about their entire selves through these activities while also upholding the integrity of the ensembles and the work we’ve done to prepare and perform.
